A record that captures the passion and wildness of early British rock.
A compilation album of recordings by the Yardbirds during Jeff Beck's time. Characterized by a sound image somewhere between blues and psychedelic, it conveys the creative energy of the early days of British rock.
This compilation captures the transitional sound of the Yardbirds, moving from R&B to psychedelic. Beck's guitar playing is raw yet imaginative, with explosive phrases on tracks like "Shapes of Things" and "Over Under Sideways Down." This collection of recordings condenses the evolutionary trajectory of the Yardbirds and is a valuable document in the history of British rock.
